Spring encounter
National Arts Centre, Canberra
I met you on a hot spring mosquito laden night
We laughed
out loud
You were under the influence
of my intoxicating humor
Or perhaps too many Black Russians
Exchanging glances
with the slightest of smiles
not perceived by others
Then as the moonlight whispered it’s goodbye
over the mountain top
You left
without a parting gesture
A lasting memory
of missed chances and what might have been
And many mosquito bites!
